Rules
Last updated Apr 16, 2026 Use Rules to configure whether to track Web Analytics for specific websites or paths. By default, Web Analytics automatically creates a single rule for the zone that injects the JavaScript (JS) snippet for all pages.
Rules are only available for sites proxied through Cloudflare. For more information, refer to Limits.
- In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the Web Analytics page. Go to Web analytics ↗
- Find the site you want to configure and select Manage site.
- Select Advanced options > Add rule.
- Select the Action and fill in the hostname and path(s) you want to add a rule for.
- If you want to add additional rules, select Add rule. Otherwise select Update to save the rule.
Warning
Configuration rules have precedence over any Web Analytics rules. If a Web Analytics rule turns on analytics measurements for an incoming request and the same request matches a configuration rule turning off Web Analytics, the configuration rule will win.
